There’s one sound that gets a big reaction from kids on a hot day, the sound of an ice-cream truck.
Maria McCartney has been in the mobile ice-cream business since 2005.
(16)"When I was a little girl, I saw an ice-cream truck and knew I wanted to have one someday," McCartney said.
During the hot days of summer, Maria and her daughter drive an ice-cream truck through neighborhoods and parks in Billings.
It’s not about making money for this former elementary school teacher. Rather,(17)she wants to preserve the tradition of the neighborhood ice-cream truck.
" Truly my favorite part is to see the kids jumping up and down and they just get so excited. It’s great to build a memory for them too. There’s not a lot of these ice-cream trucks around anymore. The parents come out barefoot and screaming, ready to buy ice-cream: they remember when they were kids and they saw a truck," she said.
While the treats may be ice cold, Maria has a warm heart for little faces.(18)Her truck features a donation bucket for kids who don’t have money for ice-cream.
"When there are three kids and only two of them have money, I always make sure the third one gets something because I can’t drive away and have that third one not have something," she said.
Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.
